Opinion

The judgment of the court was delivered May 18th, 1885.

Per Curiam:

Witnesses cannot be paid out of the county treasury, unless so directed by Act of Assembly. Although this view may sometimes operate harshly on a witness, yet the remedy is with the Legislature. The learned judge interpreted the statute correctly. His opinion sustains the judgment.

Judgment affirmed.
